its an awesome little plane..... but the covering is terrible..... everyone i know that has one will attest to that
i bought mine when it was advertised as using Ultracote..... other than the covering its indestructible..... i did a full throttle dive into a blender on several occasion and it passed the test....something i would usually never attempt in a
i also did some Dave Brown checkers on the bottom to make it looked distinguished.

Also, it appears that if I use the stock tank, I will have to trim the forward wing dowels to get the tank to fit. The manual was absolutley horrible, but it was fun trying to figure stuff out. Easy, but with a manual like that, a true beginner would be "lost in the soup".
